Product Description

The existence of sand is ultimately responsible for life as you know it on this planet. Without sand there would be no continents, there would be no television, there would be no internet, and there would be no phatty glass pieces available on the lot. Of its myriad forms, perhaps the most interesting sands (so much so that a museum dedicated to them can be found in Japan) are of the rare musical variety. Due to their strange acoustic properties which arise from vibrations caused by intergranular friction, these musical sands display a wide sonic range from the singing sands of beaches in Japan and Brazil, to the booming sands of some deserts in the United States, Africa, and China.

Unfortunately, these sands are very susceptible to contamination by environmental pollutants. As we continue to foul our planet, more of these rare sands disappear. The lyrics of Sand written by Tom Marshall and first performed by Trey with the 8-Foot Fluorescent Tubes on 4/17/98 at Vermont's Higher Ground can be interpreted as an indictment of the ills which affect our planet in general, and the Phish scene as a somewhat skewed microcosm specifically. Considering the subject matter, Sand might well have been called Heavy Things.
